Each CPU/Memory+ board has two sets of CPU connectors, marked PROC 0 and PROC 1.
The order in which you fill CPU slots is not critical. However, to optimize heat dissipation in the system:
Fill all PROC 0 locations on all CPU/Memory+ boards before filling any PROC 1 locations. To receive the maximum quantity of diagnostic information, fill PROC 0 on board 3.
After all PROC 0 locations are filled, you may begin filling the PROC 1 locations, again starting from the lowest slot number to the highest.
The Table B-1 table shows where five CPU modules are installed on three CPU/Memory+ boards (example only). Two board slots (1 and 9) do not have CPU/Memory+ boards installed because slot 1 is reserved for an I/O+ board, and in this example, slot 9 has a filler panel installed.
